中新社辽宁大连11月4日电 (记者 杨毅)由中国人民外交学会和法国法中发展交流委员会共同主办的中法市长圆桌会议3日至4日在辽宁大连举行,会议主题为“落实元首会晤共识,构建中法城市合作新格局”,来自中法十余个城市的代表与会并就多个议题展开交流。
出席本届中法市长圆桌会议的法方代表团,由法国沙托鲁市市长、法国城市协会主席吉尔·阿维鲁率领,包括讷韦尔市、吉恩市等多个城市的官员和国民议会议员等。中方代表团由中国人民外交学会副会长杨涛率领,包括来自大连、成都、中山、重庆市万州区等9个市(区)的政府代表。
杨涛在致辞中指出,在中法两国元首的战略引领下,中法保持高层及各层级密切交往。中法关系根基在地方、在城市,两国元首达成的共识最终要靠一座座城市、一批批企业去落地。此次会议旨在搭建坦诚沟通的平台,深化相互理解,妥善管控经贸风险,推动双方务实合作。
吉尔·阿维鲁表示,法国在城市规划、公共交通、老城更新、公共服务运营方面积累了丰富经验,中国的城市在短短数年间实现宏大的城市与经济转型。双方互有值得学习之处,可立足各地实际情况谋划项目,追求互利共赢。
开幕式后,代表团成员围绕“深化相互理解和认知,共同管控经贸风险”这一议题进行了深入交流和探讨。
会议为期两天,与会嘉宾还将围绕“深耕传统领域合作,拓展新兴赛道,推动两国元首共识落地见效”,以及“加强文明交流互鉴,厚植中法民间友谊”等议题进行座谈交流。会议期间,双方代表还将赴大连中远海运重工有限公司等企业参访。(完)
